Which one is for you

- Works for teams that want extraction without building templates
Look elsewhere if
- Tight if you parse more than 20 items a month on the free plan
- Skip it if you want to pay monthly without checking, since the prices shown are annual-billing rates
- Watch out: credits expire each billing period and cannot be bought alone, and refunds are very limited
- Watch out: document retention is 30 to 180 days depending on plan
Pick Parseur if
- Fits if an accounts team is typing invoice and purchase order details in by hand
- Works for developers who want a document extraction API with webhooks
Look elsewhere if
- Pricey if you process a few hundred pages, at $89 a month for 300
- Skip it if two of you need to log in, because multi-user accounts start at $499 a month
- Tight if you're staying free, with 20 pages a month, 1 user and 90 days of retention
- Watch out: at 100% of your quota new documents stop until renewal or a top-up, and unused monthly credits don't carry over
- Not for you if you need HIPAA today, as the site lists it as in progress; data is processed in the EU

How this page was made
- The verdict at the top follows a fixed rule. When both tools are in the same category and either is in our top three for it, the verdict follows that ranking: the higher-placed tool is our pick. The top three weigh who each tool suits as well as its grades, so a pick can go against the GPA. Otherwise the page does not pick one and says which grades higher: the higher GPA first; on a tie, the one with a free plan, then the one that starts cheaper in dollars a month, counted the same way for both; if they are still level, what the choice depends on.
- The grades are our own, from each tool’s review or report card. The GPA is their average.
- Prices, plans and platforms come from each tool’s listing. The table above says where each price was read and when.
